Today I felt like giving up...

Today I felt like giving up… well, emotionally anyway.

I sat down at my laptop, started writing, as I usually do, pouring my heart out, angry and frustrated. Then my screen refreshed, and everything I’d typed was gone.

At first, I was even more annoyed. But then I thought: what if this was an opportunity? An invitation to see how easy it can be to erase frustration and start again, like a fresh new page.

So today… I’m taking my one day. One day to feel everything I need to feel about the situation and then move on with clearer insight tomorrow.

But then I went one step further. I thought… maybe I should have a bagel.

WOAH! Sam! Hahaha… reminding myself how human I am.

I could go get that bagel. The truth is, no one but the lady serving me would know... or my gut, as it starts processing it with bloat and sticky, gooey, unfermented flour.

Or… I could reach for something I prepared yesterday, for today, with love.

A pot of mixed carby veggie curry - warm, satisfying, filling, loving, and comforting.

I posted the basic recipe up on the Rooted and Rewired No BS Recipe Group if you feel like trying it.

Because at the end of the day, it’s not about never falling.

It’s about how we get up, again and again - with love, with choice, with a little more kindness each time.
